Hey baby won't you take my handAnd make me a happy manI ain't rich but I found my fortune in youTwo jobs on the nighttime shiftI'm still left with an empty fistBut my heart is full and my love is trueWe can still get married in the style of our friends and familyGather all of them to celebrate while we slip out quietly

And have a hometown honeymoonWildflowers and love is in bloomWe'll have a hometown honeymoon just me and youHometown honeymoonGet out of church and up to your roomWe'll have a hoe-down afternoonDancing to the rhythm of love

We can sing and laugh out loudLifestyles of the poor but proudCuddle up on the porch and enjoy the viewWe can't afford Niagara FallsBut there's a fountain by the old town hallWe'll make a wish by the light of a lover's moonI'll get my Grandma's wedding ring and my brother's ChevroletWe can stay at your mama's house; we don't have to go away

To have a hometown honeymoonWildflowers and love is in bloomWe'll have a hometown honeymoonDancing to the rhythm of love

Your daddy's prize possessionI'll make a good impressionI'm gonna get his blessing that's all we need

Hometown honeymoonWildflowers and love is in bloomWe'll have a hometown honeymoon just me and youHometown honeymoonGet out of church and up to your roomWe'll have a hoe-down afternoonDancing to the rhythm of love
